This (not so) Common Yellowthroat was singing his heart out at #AnahuacNWR (TX) in March. I enjoyed the concert.

A common yellowthroat is perched on a small limb of an almost bare tree with head up and beak wide open. All of the twigs on the tree are covered with tiny buds of green, signaling spring. The bird is very striking with its thick black mask and bright yellow throat and chest. There is a white band over the black eye mask and then the crown, back and wings are an olive-brown color.

I spent way too much time playing with B/W filters this morning, but this Common Nighthawk was the winner. #AnahuacNWR, April 2026

A black and white photo of a nighthawk perched on a fence post with two strands of barbed wire below. The textures of the wood, the feathers and the barbed wire seems accentuated in the B/W format.

I don't know the parental status of this pair of Blue-winged Teals, but I was happy with the photo as they tend to be very very skittish and uncooperative models around me. #AnahuacNWR, March 2026

A pair of blue-winged teals is standing closely together in shallow pond water with the male slightly behind the female. The female is mostly a patterned brown and buff on the body with a brown head that has a slightly darker cap and eyeline. Her bill is black. The male has a dark gray head with a thick white stripe in front of the eye and a black bill. The male's body is also mostly patterned brown and buff, but it has has black wings and tail. A tiny bit of blue on his wing can be seen peeping out in the photo.
